## Description

The ideal accessory for nature photography or support for binoculars and scopes.

Review: Doesn't Grip Column Sufficiently Tightly - Not Made as Well as in the Past - The title says it - consequently, the column (genuine Manfrotto part as well) rotates with any reasonable amount of clamping force. The internal parts are plastic and one can only tighten the thumb-screw so much without risk of breakage or stripped threads. This is certainly a limitation in my application, where I rely on having everything "square". Each time, that I touch the set-up, to finely adjust the head, the column rotates as well. Ughh.... FWIW, this is clearly different behavior compared to the fit between column and tripod legs. Those all grip tightly so the adjustment doesn't drift. The 349 Column Clamp is plainly bad. I'd had the "replaced" 3424 and it also held tightly. Second Ughh....
Review: Not what I thought it was - I can still use this clamp, but not like I wanted to. This will fit on a camera or light stand and hold something, not what I wanted.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not what I thought it was
*by S***R on May 21, 2013*

I can still use this clamp, but not like I wanted to. This will fit on a camera or light stand and hold something, not what I wanted.

### ⭐ this clamp has a design flaw
*by A***R on February 14, 2014*

Have purchased three clamps, 2 have broken. The weak spot is where the screw enters the lower jaw of the clamp. Both have broken at that point. So far Manfrotto has ignored my emails regarding any warranty. The clamp is a good idea but their design is flawed.
